forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause Welltower’s actual
results to differ materially from Welltower’s expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. This may be a result of various factors, including, but not limited to:

the expected discontinuance of LIBOR and the transition to any other interest rate benchmark; issues facing the health care industry, including compliance with, and
changes to, regulations and payment policies, responding to government investigations and punitive settlements and operators’/tenants’ difficulty in cost effectively

Business Update January 2021 - Welltower
Recent Developments
 Seniors Housing Operating (SHO) Portfolio Update

• Total SHO portfolio occupancy declined approximately 220 basis points(1) (bps) during 4Q2020 from 78.4% to 76.2%. Month-to-date, occupancy has declined an additional 85bps,
  with occupancy of 75.3% as of January 15, 2021
• Occupancy remains pressured by a decline in move in activity resulting from the continued increase in COVID-19 cases and implementation of shelter in place orders across many
  of our geographies
• As expected, higher than anticipated COVID expenses, particularly those related to labor, PPE, and sanitation have resulted in 4Q2020 operating margins in the low-20% range(2).
  Operating margins will likely deteriorate further in 1Q2021, owing to the likelihood of further occupancy losses, elevated COVID-related expenses, and seasonal factors

     Rent Collections Update

• Triple-Net Portfolio: Collected 97% of rent due in 4Q2020
• Outpatient Medical (OM): Collected or approved short-term deferrals for over 99% of rent due in 4Q2020, consisting of 97% cash collections and 2% short-term deferrals(3)

 COVID-19 Vaccine Update

• Distribution of COVID-19 vaccines in seniors housing communities across the US commenced during the week of December 21, 2020. The number of vaccines administered to
  residents and staff in WELL communities has accelerated in recent weeks, having tripled during the week of January 15, 2020 as compared to the prior week
• Some residents and staff are beginning to receive second doses of the vaccine through clinics administered by CVS/Omnicare, Walgreens, and other partners

Investment Update
• Since previous business update, closed on the following transactions:
            • Second tranche of the Wafra Inc. joint venture consisting of six OM buildings with $153 million in pro rata proceeds to WELL; a third tranche is expected to close in 1Q2021
            • Second tranche of the Invesco joint venture consisting of five OM buildings for $81 million in pro rata proceeds to WELL; a third tranche is expected to close in 1Q2021
• In 4Q2020, completed pro rata dispositions of $674 million at a 5.2% blended yield; pro rata acquisitions during the quarter of $506 million completed at an initial, non-stabilized
  yield of 3.6% and at a significant discount to replacement cost
1.    Due to rounding, some totals may not correspond with the sum of the separate figures as presented in other sections of the presentation
2.    Excludes any funds received from HHS Provider Relief Fund                                                                                                                          3
3.    Short-term deferrals primarily relate to lease enforcement moratoriums in several California jurisdictions

COVID-19 Path to Recovery
     Vaccine Update (since prior Business Update)
      • US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to Moderna for its vaccine on December 18, 2020(1)
      • UK’s Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granted authorization for the emergency supply of AstraZeneca’s vaccine on December 30, 2020(2)
      • Johnson & Johnson Phase 1/2a trials of its single-dose COVID-19 vaccine demonstrated immunity for up to 71 days and is expected to release results of
        Phase 3 trials in late-January 2021(3)
      • AstraZeneca is expected to release data from a larger US clinical trial by February 2021 (4)

     Vaccine Distribution
      • UK seniors housing staff began receiving initial doses of the Pfizer vaccine during the week of December 7, 2020 and many have received a second dose
      • Initial administering of the vaccine in US seniors housing communities began late December with residents beginning to receive second doses in mid-January
      • As of January 15, 2021, approximately 1.4 million vaccine doses have been administered in long-term care facilities in the US through the Federal Pharmacy
        Partnership for Long-Term Care Program(5)

     Welltower Response
      • Coordinating connections for SH operators with CVS/Omnicare and Walgreens on distribution of COVID-19 vaccine to Welltower communities with a current focus on
        staff and resident education around vaccine efficacy and safety
                 • CVS and Walgreens have previously established protocols for the distribution of seasonal flu vaccine within our communities which will provide platform for
                   rollout of potential COVID-19 vaccines
      • Ongoing dialogue with the NIH Warp Speed team and pharmaceutical companies to monitor upcoming therapeutics
      • Continued collaboration with UCSF and Johns Hopkins faculty to support operator planning and logistical preparation for upcoming vaccine distributions
